Gauntlet Test: Stribog SP9A3 Roller Delayed PCC
The Stribog SP9A3 underwent a rigorous Gauntlet Test, simulating extreme environmental conditions like submersion in water, sand, dirt, and mud. While it experienced several failures to feed and eject, particularly in dirt and mud, it consistently finished its magazines, demonstrating surprising resilience for an exposed-action roller-delayed system. The reviewer suggests that using higher-pressure ammunition might improve reliability in such adverse scenarios.
